[For Sale: Car] For sale: 73 VW Fastback

[Chopper]

Right, I'm gonna have another crack at sellin my my lovely Fastback.
She's a 73 1600 Fuel injected.
A proper Hoodride, Rat looker.
All round tatty with great paint patina.
No serious structural rust, very solid except for air box (always goes on these).
I've had the engine out to clean up and cure all oil leaks, new push rod tubes and gaskets.
The motor is very good, runs beautifuly and starts very easily even when left for weeks in the cold!
Just pulled it out of my mates barn after 18 months, stuck on some jump leads and off she went!!
Drives really well, Type 3s are much more refined than beetles!
Although the brakes now need a little attention!
Refurbed Injection with new 'Brain' and Voltage regulator.
She's slighty lowered and was like this when I got her. Torsion bars all round so easy to change.
I have the front bumper and new indicator lense.

€1750 inc the roofrack, Porsche stud pattern rear hubs and drums (I was plannin Polished Fuchs!) and a nice Leather and ally steering wheel.
€1500 for the car without the above.
Would consider exchange for decent Type25 Diesel panel van.
I'm near Clonakilty, West Cork. 0879023421

I brought it over from the UK myself about 3 years ago.
There are no signs of repair or restoration.
The car is pretty much complete and untouched.

I've tried to take the pics you wanted but it's hard to properly show what you want.
The floor and under the seats is good, there is a lot of surface rust as the car got a bit wet before.
It's been stored in a mates barn for the last 18months and she's now good and dry.
Before that my wife was using her as a daily driver.
The engine/bumper mount area is not the best but still solid and intact.
You'd really have to see it for yourself.

Nice car, good potential in it, is that the original engine do you know.

I'ts hard to know for sure but I'd say it is.
I had it out to sort a couple of oil leaks and it just seemed like it hadn't been messed with.
